Today we are going to talk about Point Nemo, which is still the most isolated place in the whole world. As you may already be imagining, the most isolated place in the world is in the middle of an ocean, and that is the Pacific.
Point Nemo or the Pacific Inaccessibility Pole is located in the Pacific Ocean and is the furthest place from any continent. And yet, not only further away from any continent, but also an island, did the curiosity to get to know this place so isolated on the planet hit? So come check out this article, because during it you will know all the known information about Ponto Nemo.

Where is the Most Isolated Place in the World located?
We know that Point Nemo, the most isolated place in the world, is located in the Pacific Ocean, but we still haven't talked about its location more precisely. It is located between the Dulce Islands and Maher Island of Antarctica and the Motu Nui islet of Easter Island.
The closest inhabited area to the Most Secluded Place in the World is at 2,700 kilometers, which is nowhere near. For comparison, the space station is just over 400 kilometers from Earth, can you understand where I want to go? Point Nemo is closer to space space, which is in space than to an inhabited area on earth.
And because it is such an uninhabited spot, this place has become a “graveyard” for space waste, which no longer serves in space, they discard it there. There are satellites and even pieces of the Mir space station, which crashed on the planet in 2011, as well as other artifacts.
When was Point Nemo Discovered?
For years, many scientists have searched for the most isolated place in the world, but they have not been able to identify one to say that that place was inaccessible. However, in 1992 the Croatian-Canadian engineer and researcher Hrvoje Lukatela, managed to locate what would be the most isolated place in the world.
In addition to using geographic and spatial coordinates, the engineer and researcher made use of a geospatial computer program to locate Point Nemo. I want to point out that this computer program was created by Hrvoje Lukatela, let's say the guy is a genius.
Is there marine life at this location?
Compared to other places in the seas, let's say that there is practically no marine life there, just a few bacteria. Let's say that of all the oceans in the world, this is the least biologically active region, however, there are some species of fish.
However, these species are quite different from what we are used to seeing, because they only exist there. And precisely because it is a place with very little active life, Ponto Nemo ends up being used for the disposal of Space Waste.
